"Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns in order to look at things in a different way."
"If you never change your mind, why have one?"
"Many highly intelligent people are poor thinkers. Many people of average intelligence are skilled thinkers. The power of a car is separate from the way the car is driven."
"Humor is by far the most significant activity of the human brain."
"Some people drift along like a cork on a river, feeling that they cannot do anything except drift, moment to moment. This is an attitude of mind. Everyone can be constructive even in tiny ways."
yeahs . some quotes by EDWARD DE BONO :D
the guy has said some really innovative stuuff .
came up with stuff like lateral thinking and the 6 thinking hats (:
mr cheong told us to do research on him. i didnt do much . but the little i'ved read has said quite a fair bit . hahaha .
told myself to stay at home today and study .
well . thats what i told myself yesterday .
yesterday . i ended going home and falling asleeep right away .
slept from 1 - 6
had the WEIRDEST DREAM EVER .
im starting to contemplate why mr cheong said i had a really disturbing train of thought.
maybe my subconscious is dark .. disturbing. and negative.
but WHY ?!
it was like a whole few years went by my head .
in short .
you know those vaulted hallways of toilets .
rows of toilets and showers and changing rooms that never seem to end ?
yeah . and how suddenly at the end there's this one room that stands out .
whether a brooms closet or something . nobody knows .
and nobody opens that door EVER ?
yeah . in my dream .. it was sort of in like parts . ohkay . lets call them EPISODES .
EPISODE ONE ?
i was kinda doing something . blah blah .
then went to the toilet. curious and all . opened the door .
then . it opened to like a different dimension.
where things looked the same . just not quite right .
in other words . a different world larhs.
so yeah . went to explore .
saw this bunch of quite-not-so-normal people .
blah blah . before i knew it . they realised i had invaded their "territory"
then was kinda being chased .
it was kinda creepy . the whole desperation . fatigue . confusion all blended into one .
alot of stuuff happened . lazy to pen down the details =x some forgotten .
hahaha.
i only remembered the whole close-call-just-managed-to-get-through-the-door-and-close-it-frantically-before-the-pursuer-does.
yeah . then like the episode ended .
EPISODE TWO ?
this time it was zhimin and jianming .
[please dont ask me why . it just happened]
some other peeps . i cant remember .
if i not wrong my parents . some other people inside .
anyways . they were playing . going on with their life . blah blah . curiosity killed the cat kinda of thing and opened a door in the creepy toilet too .
they ended in this like .. park-carpark creepy place .
then there was this long black-haired guy .
dressed in leather . like those serial killers/handsome hero.
with this rather plump guy. gold hair . surfer/sidekick look .
they were kinda having this barbecue . i dont know what happened .
then they were suddenly on this high floor of a building .
and a guy with a bunch of metal tentacles appeared .
and yeah . caught sight of jm they all .
then another frantic life-death chase .
even one part where they went out a window . the tentacles guy crashed everything . scaled the building .
ohkay . that part didnt make sense .
blood spurting everywhere .
then . one of the guys died . raced through the rooms . and only zhimin and jianming survived .
it was kinda creepy .
AIYA . i serously dont know =x
EPISODE THREE .
i cant really remember .
but somewhere in the other world .
the alien people were like having a meeting together .
about this suddenly increase of infiltration into their world .
disturbing the balance and all . lols .
it was kinda ironic.
then they planned a whole rebellion and all .
and somehow . they managed to opened the doorr .
so yeah . the scene switched to like . an arcade/pub/club kind of thing .
then i was with someone . cant remember who .
then we went down into this underground part of the arcade . where there were these other games .then. in between the staircase and games . was this huge block . where you can walk around . but into through . so yeah .
it was transparent . like made with metal wires and all entangled .
so yeah .
suddenly jianming and zhimin came down also .
then they wanted to play . it was some dangerous game . so we were like warning him not to play .
then suddenly got this guy walk past us .
like .. dramatically slow .
then .. walked past me . i realised . SUPER FAMILIAR .
like the long haired guy .
so i like . pulling them . say . something feels wrong .
then jianming like haolian =x
say . we've done things you never even imagined
then i like . knew he was referring to the toilet thing .
so i like . what makes you think that .
ohkay . some ego scene .
then i watched the staircase . heard like this funny voice .
the guy talking to some small shadow of a green goblin . saying yeah . correct people and all .
then i crept up to one side of the huge block . and opposite i could see the green goblin walking. so i quickly ran up the staircase . and BOOM . i think there was violence and zm and jm fell silent .
i then opened a door and i ended up on a funny plank . like those piers ?
but it was in mid air . those in the middle of nowhere . nothing below and above but limitless abyss . i began to run . at the end was the pier leading upwards , like a upwards staircase to climb . so i climbed to the top .
suddenly . opposite me i saw the long hair-ed guy .when i looked down . the pier was quite far now .stretched away.
so i was stuck on some vertical staircase. just hanging in abyss . yay .
ohkay . from there i cant really remember what happened .
just alot of running . screaming . hiding :D
ohkay . for those who dont care . ignore the whole rambling on top . hahahah
if i have the time . and inspiration after o's .
maybe i'll write it into the book .
considering what terrible english and expression skills i have . i doubt that .
but .. it'll be good to try yeah . hahahaa .
anyways . went to ahma's house to celebrate ahyi's birthday.
STEAMBOAT :D
sorry xiaohao . pangseh =x hahaha .
OH ! didnt write about geog . aiya . same old same old .
jarryl they all starting to piss me off =x lols .
ohkay . anyways (:
ate breakfast with julia and imah then went home :D hahaha
yeah . ahyi and adeline said i should go jc .
then caiwen they all say go poly .
like DIAO . i dont know =x gosh . this sucks . haha
i guess either way . both point in the obvious direction STUDY HARD :D
im happy . yet im crushed as well . who would care to understand ? ):
i guess the worst way to miss someone is when all you have to dwell on are nothing but memories and half-torn pictures in your mind.
like missing a dead war hero .
where he doesnt age in your mind .
but reality paints a totally different picture .
and you're totally oblivious .
knowing you're so close , yet so far .
and there's so much to say .
and yet you're speechless .
hahaha . anyways . just cherish what you have now .
help those around you . since im totally hopeless . haha .
and i've learnt not to have any hopes and expectations when it comes to love (:
though it wouldnt hurt to dream yeah ?
just know that at the end of the day .
they ARE in fact nothing but mere dreams .
i know im blessed (: so i shouldnt be complaining . haha .
lets just say that im tired of empty words .
empty words, empty hopes, empty promises .
all word no action .
just leaves the heart yearning for the WHAT IFs.
and im seriously sick of that.
i learnt not to be so naive . so gullible .
falling into (quoted by xiaohao) the abyss of love.
i think i've let myself make the same mistake oh too many times le ?
enough (:
to be or not to be . thats the question .
but its YOUR question .
only you can answer it for yourself .
only you can decide whether to BE or NOT TO BE affected by certain things . hahahs .
BE or NOT TO BE the one who takes action .
